Here is my dilemma - I have a '63 F100 - with a '69 351W from a Fairlane/Torino - C9OE - with a Motorcraft 2150 off a '77 Truck - D7TE
The Carburetor needs rebuild or replaced.
What way should I go?
Thanks for any HELP..........

Take it apart and see if it is worth rebuilding. Then you can make a decision more easily.
For every person with a spark of genius, there are a hundred with ignition trouble

I like the 60's Autolite 2100's. Readily available, good on gas, easy to work on. But what you have should work also if clean and rebuilt.
Unless you go 4v, then an 400 or 500 CFM autolite 4100 is good. 1.08 diameter should be fine.
